Garden Rose Pink Ohara

The pink garden rose Ohara is a large, French, pink rose, that opens up fully in a quartered way. It is very fragrant and wonderful for weddings and special events. It is hardy to ship and its vase life is extraordary. As the bloom opens, the outer petals gradually lighten in color and turn back, eventually becoming hidden. Pink Ohara has a delicate fragrance. Pink Ohara is ideal for gift or mixed bouquets, arrangements for the home, for weddings or to celebrate the birth of a baby girl. Choose Pink Ohara for the large blooms and for its natural, cottage garden charm.

As soon as you receive your shipment of garden roses, please open the box and check on your flowers. It is to be expected that the roses will be tired after their journey. They will be softer and more droopy at first, which will correct in less than 6 hours after being in water. You will see them take their first drink and start to perk up and become crisper and more 'alive'. All garden roses are shipped when the flowers are still in partial bud form, slightly closed to slightly open. The roses will be fully open in 1 to 3 days, depending on how warm it is in their new environment (in a warm location, they will open the quickest. If they are kept in a floral cooler, opening will be delayed)

- Fill vases with plenty of fresh water and add flower food/floral preservative (not included). - Don't forget to remove the thorns! You can use a rose pruner or sharp kitchen knife.- Also you will need to remove any leaves that will fall below the water line of the vase (submerged leaves create dirty water that the flowers don't like to drink). - Cut 1/2 inch off the ends of the stems on an angle and place immediately in water. The slanted cut will give the ends of the stems more surface area with which to absorb water. - Keep your garden roses in a cool, somewhat dark location and let them rest for 4-6 hours while they take their initial drink. After they have re-hydrated they will still need to be kept in a cool, dry location (between 35-70 degrees F), and away from direct sunlight.

Here are some tips for keeping your garden roses fresh for as long as possible:- The cooler they are kept, the fresher they will stay!- Garden roses don't like extreme locations - don't freeze them in a cooler or refridgerator that is too cold, and don't let them burn up in a sunny location.- Keep checking that the water level in the vases doesn't get low. Sometimes roses surprise you with their thirst!- Try to change the water in the vases and recut the ends of the stems every day. This will keep the water from becoming contaminated with bacteria that will block the flower's availability to absorb water and will also give the stem a fresh surface to take in water.
